Project Funding Dilemma for Ottawa Elderly Housing
Ottawa faces a funding dilemma as bids for the North American Apartments project exceed estimates by nearly 100000. Low bids total 611284 for general, mechanical, electrical and elevator work, while purchase and other fees push total costs beyond 608000. City officials, led by City Manager Robert Mills, will present options to the City Commission to cover the gap, including additional revenue, rebidding, or restarting the process. The project has a 300000 federal grant and 308000 to be financed by housing revenue bonds.
